There are several methods. You could do this by having 2.25 + 2.25 = 4.5, this rounds to 2 + 2 = 5. The most popular method, though, is the following:
16 - 36 = 25 - 45
This can be transformed into:
16 - 36 + (81/4) = 25 - 45 + (81/4)
. . . transforms to . . .
42 - 2 * 4 * (9/2) + (9/2)2 = 52 - 2 * 5 * (9/2) + (9/2)2
. . . transforms to . . .
a2 - 2 * a * b + b2 = (a - b2)
. . . simplified to . . .
(4 - [9/2]2) = (5 - [9/2]2)
. . . simplified, finally, to . . .
4 = 5
Thus 2 + 2 = 5.
NOTE
If there are any mathematical issues in the process above, please notify me. I did not create but rather found this equation, and I suspect that there may be an error.
It doesn't ! -7 plus -5 equals -12 ! -7 plus 5 equals -2
7+2+5= 14 35 42
-2 plus 5 equals +3
5 plus 25 equals 60. Need to solve for 5 plus 25 equals ?: 2 plus 10 equals 24 is equivalent to 2 × (1 plus 5) equals 2 × (12); and 3 plus 15 equals 36 is equivalent to 3 ×(1 plus 5) equals 3 × (12); thus 5 plus 25 equals ? is equivalent to 5 × (1 plus 5) equals 5 × (12); thus ? = 5 × 12 = 60.
2+5=7 5+2=7 2+5=5+2
If you mean 2 plus 2 equals 5 it is possible. 2 plus 2 equals 22 (or it could also be 4 if you want it but must be 22 to make 5...it makes sense) V is the 22nd letter in the alphabet and the roman numeral for V is 5. BOOM! 2 PLUS 2 EQUALS 5!
-2 plus 5 = 3
No.

This equation is not possible. Two plus three plus four plus five does not equal 287. The system has no solution.
